Nagi

Nagi, the home of the ruthless Nagai, is located in a dense star cluster on the edge of the satellite galaxy known as Companion Besh. It’s a world of vertiginous mountains and seemingly endless wastes, of bitter winds and sudden, ferocious storms that cause vegetation to erupt from its sandy soil within hours. Life on Nagi clusters around oases, including the eerily beautiful Nagai cities of wire and crystal.

The Nagai physiology clearly indicates they have some kinship with humans, but exactly how they came to Companion Besh is unknown. Some anthropologists have postulated that the Nagai are an offshoot of the Chiss, but neither species’ history or even legends offer a clue.

The Nagai were just experimenting with faster-than-light travel when one of their scout ships was spotted by a privateer flying the colors of the Tofs, a brutal species of humanoid giants from Companion Besh. The Tofs followed the Nagai ship back to its origin and soon arrived in force, pillaging the planet.

The Nagai fought a desperate guerrilla war against the Tofs and their slave species on Nagi while dispatching scouts to the stars of Companion Besh and the great galaxy—known to them as the Sky River—that blazed in Nagi’s skies. After centuries of struggle, they allied themselves with other refugees of the Tof conquests, most notably the shipbuilding Faruun and the war-like Maccabree. With a Faruun starship, Maccabree muscle, and the aid of a mysterious cyborg from Sky River named Lumiya, the Nagai devised a desperate plan: They would wait until both sides of the Galactic Civil War were exhausted, then carve out an empire among the worlds of the Sky River. From that new empire, they would then return to Companion Besh in force and destroy the Tofs.

The Nagai invaded the Sky River soon after the Battle of Endor and won several early battles against the forces of the Alliance, who were taken aback by these cruel, elegant warriors. But the Nagai were followed by the Tofs, who were delighted at the idea of an entire new galaxy to pillage. The Nagai reluctantly allied themselves with the Alliance and Mandalorians under Finn Shysa’s command. The Tofs were defeated at Saijo. Some Nagai adopted Saijo as their new homeworld, but most remained committed to freeing their native planet.
